Description
Footsteps on Wooden Stairs by Debra Martz
.........................
When I saw these patterns on the wooden stairs in the Captain's Quarters at Fort Laramie, I thought perhaps this is how the idea for stair runners (carpet runners) came to be! These stairs have seen many footsteps over time!
Fort Laramie National Historic Site in Wyoming was originally established as a fur trading post in 1834 and named Fort Williams and several years later renamed Fort John. In 1849 it was purchased by the U.S. Army and became Fort Laramie at that time. The fort was decommissioned in 1890.
